Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process is initiated by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC), focusing on the "Customer Contact Programme" within the call centre industry category. Located at 5W Ralli Quays, Manchester, the project is currently in the planning stage and involves an early engagement exercise with interested parties. The engagement deadline is set for 2nd September 2019, and the notice provides no commitment to immediate market procurement options. HMRC is exploring various procurement methods, including the CCS Digital Marketplace/Frameworks, while inviting potential suppliers to register on the HMRC SAP/Ariba portal for further participation.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses looking to expand their services in the customer contact domain, particularly in areas such as voice recording, workforce management, and telephony services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly well-suited to compete for these contracts, as HMRC is open to exploring a diverse range of existing contracting options. Interested parties should prepare to engage with HMRC through the prescribed questionnaire format, which will assist in refining their requirements and enhance their chances of securing future contracts.

Notice Title

Customer Contact Programme

Notice Description

This is to alert interested parties that HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) is considering procurement options to meet a variety of Customer Contact requirements, including, but not exclusive to Voice Recording and Interaction Analytics, Workforce Management, Campaign Management and Telephony Services. In addition, its purpose is to initiate an electronic market engagement exercise. HMRC is starting a journey that will secure a set of integrated, class leading customer contact management services as part of a programme that will help transform customer and advisor experience. Whilst it is likely that HMRC will use a variety of approaches to secure the very best services in this field, the purpose of this notice (PIN) is to alert interested parties that existing contracting options are also being considered, including the use of CCS Digital Marketplace/Frameworks. As such, the issue of this notice provides no commitment that HMRC will be going to the open market for such services in the near future. This will also facilitate an electronic market engagement exercise. Interested parties will be able to register on the HMRC SAP/Ariba portal, and submit information/responses using a questionnaire format, to further inform HMRC requirements. This notice covers Customer Contact as a whole, but interested parties should remain aware that as requirements are defined further PINs may be published and market engagement commenced for specific services, which may include Voice Recording and Interaction Analytics, Workforce Management, Campaign Management and Telephony Services.
